Hi I have a text field on my form. I just want to be able to type in numbers, not text and I found this code, which I thought might work but it didn't.
var patt1=new RegExp(/^\d*$/);
event.rc = patt1.test(event.value);
The properties panel will also not let me select an action of numbers.
Does anybody know how or what script I use in teh validate script section to get this functioning please?

Hi, I tried that after I unclicked multi-line which was stopping me and gave it no decimal places as people will be entering in account numbers etc, numbers up to 30 in some cases, but the seperator style give commas and full stops which I don't want, I just want a row of numbers

Where did you place that code, exactly? It's less than ideal, but should work somewhat as a Validate script, but not as you want it to. I'd normally use a Keystroke script for this, something like the one shown here: http://forums.adobe.com/message/3153643#3153643
An advantage to this approach over the built-in Number format is it prevents the entry of negative numbers, the decimal separator, and digits to the right of the decimal separator.

Hi George, did the scrips but one thing I didn't understand was:-
Use the following as the text field's custom Keystroke script:
// Keystroke script
Dig09_ks();
I went to document javascripts, named it numbers, added in the code you gave and I am at a loss as to what to do next?

To enter a custom Keystroke script, set the Format type of the field to Custom and you see where you can enter the Keystroke script.
Just enter the following for the script:
Dig09_ks();
This will call the function you created whenever the user enters data in the field.
